Lyrics aren't working on phone

Post by futurepotus »

I manually add lyrics to all my songs on MMW, but when I try to view them on my phone, I get the notification that "Lyric Lookup is available on a trial basis".

If I already have the lyrics saved, they shouldn't need to be looked up.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy 10e
MMA: 2.0.0.1086
Lookup missing lyrics: Unchecked

Did you Sync after adding Lyrics? If so, a wifi or USB Sync and with which version of MMW (Help > About)?

I did sync. This has only been happening since the update.

Wifi Sync
MMW: 5.0.4.2690

Hi,

I'm unable to replicate this. Can you confirm whether sync is working in general? e.g. if you add a track to a playlist in MMW5 (that isn't on the phone), does it get copied to the phone and appear on the sync list?

Thanks!

I can confirm that sync is working as expected.

Okay, in playing around a bit more. I can see my lyrics (though all formatting is gone) if I click the Edit button in each song and then hit cancel my lyrics show up

Ahh... I think you may be experiencing this issue:
https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19922

i.e. when you look at the track metadata via the Playing queue, the updates don't appear, but if you look at the metadata via another node (e.g. Music > Albums > AlbumName > Track) then the metadata displays as expected.

Can you confirm?
